GELighting

Product informationFrom GE’s invention of HPS lighting in 1965 to today’s advanced sources, GE Lucalox™ High Pressure Sodium lamps have led the way in quality and innovation. GE’s exclusive amalgam reservoir design works to increase life expectancy and improve lumen maintenance.

With efficiencies approaching 137 lumens per watt, GE Lucalox™ Standard lamps are the most efficient light source available with acceptable colour rendering. High efficiency results in lower operating costs and thus a lower electricity bill.

Most Lucalox™ lamps have an average rated life of up to 28,500 hours. Long life means lower replacement and maintenance costs.

Survival rate and lumen maintenanceAverage lamp life & lumen maintenance is based on laboratory tests of a large number of representative lamps under controlled conditions, including operation at 11 hours per start on ballasts having specified electrical characteristics.

The following conditions can reduce average lamp life and lumen maintenance:•  Frequent on/off switching•  High line voltage•  Vibration•  High ambient temperature within the fixture•  Ballast and ignitor characteristics

Average rated lifeThe survival of individual lamps or particular groups of lamps depends on these system conditions, and actual data may fall dependent upon the lamp operating conditions even below the lower limit (see Lamp survival graphs).

For cost-of-light calculations involving these lamps, the following estimated operating times are suggested for 50% survival:

Lumen maintenanceUnder the same controlled conditions, initial reference lumens refer to the lamp lumen output after 100-hours burning. Dueto variations in systems and service conditions (in particular the burning cycle), actual lamp performance can vary from thereference lumen ratings. The lumen maintenance (light output during life) of individual lamps or particular groups oflamps may fall dependent upon the lamp operating conditions even below the line (see lumen maintenance graphs).

Run-up characteristicsThe graph shows typical run-up characteristics for a 250WLucalox™ lamp. Time for the light output to reach 90% ofthe final value is determined by supply voltage and ballastdesign. Typical values are:

Wattage 70 100 150 250 400 1,000

Run-Up (Mins) <4 4 4 5 3 6

Hot re-strike timeAll ratings re-strike within 1 minute following a short interruption in the supply. Actual re-strike time is determined by ignitor type, pulse voltage and cooling rate of the lamp.

Supply voltageLamps are suitable for supplies in the range 220V to 250V50/60Hz for appropriately rated series choke (reactor)ballasts. Supplies outside this range require a transformer(conventional, high reactance or CWA) to ensure correctlamp operation. Lamps start and operate at 10% below therated supply voltage when the correct control gear is used.However, in order to maximize lamp survival, lumenmaintenance and colour uniformity the supply voltageand ballast design voltage should be within ±3%. Supplyvariations of ±5% are permissible for short periods only. This may be achieved by measuring mean supply voltage at the installation and selecting ballasts with appropriate settings. 0%

BallastsLamps are fully compatible with ballasts manufactured for high pressure sodium lamps to IEC 60662. Ballasts shouldcomply with specifications IEC 60922 and IEC 60923.Ballast Thermal Protection — Use of ballasts incorporating thermal cut-out is not a specific requirement but is a goodoptional safety measure for installation.Ballast Voltage Adjustment — Series choke (reactor) ballasts incorporating additional tappings at ±10V of the rated supplyvoltage are recommended. Alternatively a single additional tapping 10V above the rated supply voltage will ensure lampsare not overloaded due to excessive supply voltage.

IgnitorsBoth Superimposed and Impulser type ignitors are suitable. It is recommended that only GE approved ignitors are used.Ignitors should comply with specifications IEC 60926 and IEC 60927 and have starting pulse characteristics as follows.

Ballast

Control gearIt is essential to use a ballast appropriate to the supplyvoltage at the luminaire. Typical wiring diagrams for control circuits incorporating “superimposed” or “impulser” ignitor and choke (reactor) ballasts are shown. Refer to actual choke and ignitor manufacturers data for terminal identification and wiring information.

Timed ignitorsUse of a “timed” or “cut-out” ignitor is not a specific requirement, but it is a good optional safety feature for installation. The timed period must be adequate to allow lamps to cool and restart when the supply is interrupted briefly

(see “Hot re-strike time”).

Safety warnings

The use of these products requires awareness of the following safety issues:

Warning

During the production process, GE Lucalox lamps are start tested according to the requirements of the IEC 60662 Standardsand will therefore be compatible with ignitors designed for lamps to this standard and which comply with the relevantignitor Standards (IEC 60926 & 60927). Examples of commercial ignitor manufacturers are:

# Impulser type - approved only when used with a suitable ballast.

Cable between ignitor and lamp – The cable connected between the lamp and a superimposed ignitor “Lp” terminal,or the ballast when using an impulser ignitor, must be rated at a minimum 50/60Hz voltage of 1000V. Mineral-insulatedcables are not suitable for connecting the lamp to the control gear. To achieve good starting superimposed ignitors mustbe adjacent to the luminaire. Cable capacitance of wiring between the ignitor “Lp” terminal and the lamp should not exceed100pF (<1 metre length) when measured to adjacent earthed metal and/or other cables, unless otherwise stated by the ignitormanufacturer. When using impulser type ignitors longer cable lengths between ballast and lamp are normally permissible.Limits for particular ignitors are available on request from GE Lighting or directly from the ignitor manufacturer.

PFC capacitors for choke (reactor) circuitsPower Factor Correction is advisable in order to minimise supply current and electricity costs. For 220-250V supplies250V±10% rated capacitors are recommended as follows:
